I feel your pain. Only my wife puts her totes full in the attic after she switches out winter for summer. Although, everytime I bring it up I get a quick reminder of my spot on the totempole, as she reminds me that she's had some of these shoes longer than she's had me around. I kindly change the subject after that. Lol
She also tells me watches are a fashion accessories and must go with the shoes and outfit. If I ever get my way I'll be making a blank and pen statement with them for every day of the month!
